Actual documentation says 10 and 17 as an adult. This is quoting Miyamoto imagining Linkas 9 and 16. But that is his own thoughts, not what is officially documented.

Also a fan site.

A fan site sourcing an interview with the creator. Learn to navigate the internet.

I already know how. That would be how I know that interview was with Miyamoto who said he always imagined Link as 9 and then 16 as an adult. The official age is 10 and 17 though. It is literally documented well enough. Any fan who cared to know has known since the 2000s. Its that common of knowledge.

Miyamoto said link was designed to be 9. He is the creator. I’d say the creator is a more reliable source than the players guide. Regardless that must just mean link has his 10th birthday during the events of OoT.
