I would tell you to slow down you swing or take a break from golf. I had a finger swell up and i could not grip a golf club but i had winter and it is a lot better.
When you play in tournaments PLAY YOUR OWN GAME, you probably are swing a little harder and that makes you not hit as well and it can make people golf terrible. Do not try to hit as hard as you can just take easy swings and hit Straight down the middle.
The best way to improve putting is first get a good putter, it can make putting so much more easy! Now that is not good form eagle to double bogey. But you just need to pracice at it and read the greens to see if they are fast or slow.
If you irons are getting short you many need to get custom fit irons so you can get them longer, but you would need to buy new irons

If you are swinging fast enough to hit your SW that far, you are going to get tired faster and injure your wrist. You need to focus more on tempo than speed. If you notice the pain more when you dont stretch, then stretch every time, this is very important for your body, especially at your age as you are still growing. You are hitting worse on the range then you do on the course, because you are swinging more often with less time between swings.
Since you are still growing, I wouldnt worry about getting fitted just yet, stay with standard for a couple more years. When you do get fitted, you may not need adjustment at all ince your arms will grow as well as your overall height, plus remember that when you add length to the club, you typically sacrifice accuracy.
The previous poster was incorrect when they stated that you would need new clubs, they can add extensions in under the grip to lengthen your clubs so all you would need are new grips or if you dont want the extensions, you can get your clubs reshafted.
As far as your putting, the only thing that will help is lessons and practice, new equipment will not save you.You should be spending as much time on the practice green as you do on the range.
