[Legend of Zelda] Why was Toon Link able to lift the Master Sword if Young Link couldn't.

I understand that Toon Link is older than young link but if I remember from OoT they said that Link awoke at the right age to hold the Master Sword, Toon Link seems younger than Adult Link, so why was he able to hold the sword?

Young Link picked up a sword for the first time barely minutes before the Deku Tree asked him to hop inside and start killing monsters. He's completely self taught, and if he were to try to fight Ganondorf with a sword too large and heavy to wield effectively, he' just get himself killed. Hence, the Master Sword decided to at least wait until he was physically strong enough to hold the thing competantly. 

Toon Link on the other hand had lived his entire life in a town occupied by a master swordsman with a well-regarded ~~fencing~~ swordsmanship academy. He has far greater competency with a blade at the start of his journey, as evidenced by his ability to perform dodging rolls and counterattacks, and it seems that the Master Sword felt this was enough to counteract his small size.
