I had the same problem in my lawn with my lawn just recently as it hadn't been mown for a few weeks. It's fine just now since it's been mown. Rust usually appears around this time of year, but if you look after the lawn by mowing regularly and feeding then you shouldn't need to treat with anything.

There's some information about rust disease here which you might find useful.
