You are changing directions with your lower body too late. This is causing you to get y our arms stuck behind you like others have pointed out. This is a good video from Mike Malaska and Eric Cogorno about how early the pressure shift starts to happen. ▶ this video

You have an inside takeaway. I just watched this video which covers it pretty well. ▶ this video

I mean, Mike Malaska would argue that you absolutely do take the racket high then drop it, but again, that's more a consequence of what the body's doing than anything else. ▶ this video

Yeah, you’re not allowing your right wrist to cock. You want that wrist fully extended(bent back). That’s not as much of a problem as your footwork. You’re weight is stuck on your right foot causing you to have inconsistent bottom of your swing. Mike malaska is making a little different point in this video, but the result is the same: Your downswing starts the moment you draw the club back! ▶ this video
