You’re casting your hands a bit at the top swing. I’d drive with your lower body more and to create lag. Good video here: ▶ this video

Standing up a lot at impact and need more lag throughout your swing. Try to get more lag and extend your hands after impact. Almost like you’re throwing the club out of your hands. Maybe play with how far away from the ball yiu stand as well as you’re extending too early and way up on your toes at impact ▶ this video

Classic example of 'casting' the golf club instead of letting it release through the golf ball. You can see it from face on. ▶ this video
