William Hill runs betting shops in many towns in the UK. Sports betting is promoted on the home page: http://sports.williamhill.com/

There's an American site: http://www.williamhill.us/ though it seems they've just licensed the name.

How does the latter exist if online sports betting is illegal in the US?

The US site runs under some really tight restrictions, you can only use it on a mobile phone where your network provider verifies your location is in Nevada (and Delaware maybe?), and you can only deposit cash into your account via a few physical locations.

I'm pretty sure William Hill operates legally in Nevada. They operate many of the sports books at smaller casinos there and I think offer betting shops outside of casinos there as well, like in sports bars. Nevada also allows online sports betting.
