Yeah, Wakka specifically tells Tidus that Chappu died the previous year, and that he heard on the day of the tournament. So it would be almost exactly a year before the events of the gamethat Chappu died.

Personally, I think the events of the game are probably around 4-6 months. Although it doesn't seem like it with the removal of the world map in this game. But think about it; they're going from one side of the continent to the the other on foot.
